I double checked, and yep, I had added myself to all those groups. Looks like I'm SOL... I think my problem is that I'm trying to be a member of two domains. I think if I could see both active directory trees- or even just the tree for the test server, then my PC would be able to "find" the webserver (on the test domain).
I'm betting the only solution is to somehow create a forest between the two domains, but I really don't want to tie our production server into my test server. At least I figured out the error I was getting from FrontPage... it was telling me that "Unable to retrieve folder information from the server. Access forbidden." I finally traced it to something stupid... for the "Directory Security" tab of the "default web site" properties, I restricted the access to deny all but my subnet, and two other off-site ip addresses. Well, when a new project was made with Frontpage extensions, the new folder was taking ONLY the static IP's, not the subnet allowance. So I solved that one with a workaround; I just added my own static IP to the default web site's directory access, which actually wound up making my code a bit more secure. If I want anyone in my company to "use" my site, then I could give 'em access by their IP. So each new directory that Frontpage extensions creates has those three IP's, but it still neglects the subnet IP's- which doesn't bother me. 
Tomorrow I might bring my laptop in, make it a member of the test domain (it's not a member of Any domain right now), and see if the file share option works 100%. I'll keep you (and codeproject.com) posted!
Thanks! Man, ya know, the setup of this environment was NOT supposed to be a pain; I figured the hard part would've been the coding and debugging. (laughs)

OK, that's it, I've had enough. Roger (& all who might be reading), I can't even debug the application with FPSE!! Get this; I can create the page fine, no problems; it asks me for a login to the test domain, and creates the page. When I try to run/debug the project, it logs me out of the test domain, and tries to re-login with my MAIN domain credentials!! And of course those fail! So it throws up an error message and tries to be helpful by saying "make sure you're a member of the debuggers group." My test domain account is, but of course my main domain account isn't (and I'm not about to create a forest to join the two domains)!
So, I've had it. I'm going to load and run IIS locally, run the Microsoft IIS lockdown tool on it, and be done with it.
I'm also going to swipe your idea, Roger, if you don't mind- making the web site into a "virtual directory" pointing to a share on the test server/domain. And then I'm going to redirect my default location for my local project info (my docs\visual studio projects) onto the Main domain. This way I'll be able to work from home.
So my test server will be what it was when I was running VS6.0, just a server/domain used for compatability testing and load testing and etc... no development integration. Won't be able to use Visual SourceSafe then, but I'll just resign myself to manual backups again.
Maybe I'll attack all this again when Whidbey comes out.  Thanks again for your help RW!!

Assume I have a database of 5,000,000 addresses (all opt-in) and there are 10 groups with variable number of emails belonging to them. I have to send all 5,000,000 every x number of days (could be 5, 10, 15, so on...).
Would it be best for me to send them manually one group after another, or should I send all at once and have the script queue remaining groups and have a cron service send them one after the other, as each group is finished, the other is started, kind of thing. I figure this way only a single process would be created for sending the emails and another process for accepting queueing other messages (i think). Otherwise I may have 10-15-20 scripts all competing to send emails at once which would tax the system I'm sure...
Opinions?
Thanks

Some things to consider:
* Is the information time sensitive? In other words if the emails are sent sequentially would the 5 millionth be at a disadvantage over the 1st recipient?
* You've not mentioned the software your using. That might help to find an answer. All software has its little quirks and some are better at handling a task in a certain way.
* What sort of hardware are you using? On a single processor server with limited memory running 20 scripts sequentially could quite easily tax it. But if you have large amounts of memory with multiple processors then it might work out okay if you have concurrently running scripts.

Foood has some great ones, Derek Lakin tipped me off to his creations (Derek also has some very good icons).
Also go for DT2.

Hi,
I'm working on a ordering form for my employer, and am trying to create a regular expression to check that the postal code is exactly four digits, no more, no less....
I know what to do when I know that there is an error in the user input, and I have checked that I got the name of the form element right, without typos.
I thought the expression should be pretty staight forward, but nooooo.....
Where is the error in this code?
if (/\d{4}/.test(document.bestilling.fakturapostnr.value) =! true) {<br />
....<br />
}
Thanks in advance!

Try:
<br />
if (!/^\d{4}$/.test(document.bestilling.fakturapostnr.value)) {<br />
<br />
}<br />

Regular expressions are fantastic, but rather avoid the overhead of them in this case and just use; value.length. This works on all input controls with a value. e.g.
if (document.bestilling.fakturapostnr.value.length) >= 4) {<br />
....<br />
}
Also rather use getElementById than traversing the DOM with document.bestilling.fakturapostnr.

Yeah, I thought of that, but then again.... I need the length of the textfield to be exactly for digits, the format of a norwegian postal code.

I will look into that, thanks for the advice!

Apologies, but I am confused. value.length will give you the exact length of the value, so if they have only entered in three digits then it equals 3, if five digits then 5 etc.

I know.... But then again checking with value.length will match both "asdf" and "0000", which doesn't work in my case. I need to make sure the value entered is numeric.

Have you seen those web pages where they have those 3d environment pictures that you can rotate around to get a surround view? For example, this page[^]
Does anybody know how this is done? I've tried googling for it, but since I don't know what this effect is called, my search result wasn't too helpful. I've thought about flash, but I wanted to see if there's any other option.

You can create these panoramas using various different softwares, ranging from free to maybe around $100. The free one is called ADG Panorama[^], and is free for non-commercial use only. Quicktime also has some panorama builder softwares, but they're (IIRC) expensive.
They're usually viewed using the Quicktime browser plugin.

Thanks a bunch.
So they're called panorama viewers. I was going around keying things like "3D Scrollable picture viewer" and "Scrollable Environment tools" in Google. Suffice to say, I didn't get what I was looking for.  .

iPix was one of the original ones, search based on that and you will get plenty of related info.

Welp, i'm relatively new to linux, and i just got apache installed and running for my website. I'm wondering if there's a way to blovk recursive downloading. I've blocked wget, but it's nto working...people are changing the user-agent variable and spoofing it as Ie 6.0
does anyone know a way to prevent recursive downloading altogether?
thanks

Generally... no. If a normal web browser can see it, a site mirroring tool such as wget --recursive can see it too.
You could always try mod_throttle for Apache to set limits on how quickly the site can be mirrored, but a persistant user will still always be able to get through.
